AJ Has Whyte Over Fury In Pecking Order

The hit list of Anthony Joshua has a fair share of names on it following his win over Alexander Povetkin this past weekend. And while Deontay Wilder headlines the list, Tyson Fury has been chomping at the bit to be next to fight Joshua at Wembley Stadium.

“My number one would be Wilder,” Joshua said following his win this past weekend. “That’s it. Let’s not talk about number two, number three. Wilder, that’s it, yeah.”

Speaking to DAZN, Joshua added: “Ultimately, we’re two fighters, two champions in the same division at the same time. So, at the end of the day, we have to fight each other. It would be silly of us not to.”

“If I had a pecking order it would be Wilder, Dillian (Whyte) and then Fury,” Joshua told talkSPORT of his potential opponents.

“Dillian deserves it more than Fury because he’s been consistent and Wilder because he’s the champion.”
